What will be the result of the technological disruption on the global employment, in the next 10 years, on a capitalist bases??
What will be the influence of technological development on the global surplus value of capitalist production??

I love your whitepaper. You've clearly sunk a ton of time and effort into this and it shows. Your solution is elegant and if I had a steady check coming in, I would relax and focus on other ventures (making more contributions to ATOM.)

I don't intend to be spammy (not my intent), but if someone could please answer my question in this instance, I'd really appreciate it:

Yes! That is exactly the idea. Too many people assume the DUES will kill incentives, but I claim it will increase it, since the income tax is 0%, and the tailwind behind all technology startups would be higher.

Thanks. The thing is, I am having trouble getting a fair hearing from Singularity U, despite my material being more advanced than most of theirs. I will get there, but at the moment they seem long on steep fees and light on new ideas..

Kartik, I appreciate the ideas you present and they make sense to me. I see the effects of technological deflation. However, there may be a flaw, Moore's law (which the ATOM theory relies on) is said to be coming to an absolute stop. what are your thoughts on this?

This is explained in detail throughout the publication. Plus, it is inaccurate to assume that Moore's Law is the entirely of technological progress, or even the entirety of computing. For example, parallel computing processes neural nets 20-50x faster than serial computing, even if the transistors are of the same size under Moore's Law.

You have observed how storage costs have fallen for decades. That is not Moore's Law. Hence it is incorrect to think of Moore's Law being the entirely of technological progress (or even a large part of it). It is not.
